Volunteer Opportunities
We want to create communities’ where everyone feels included, valued, and supported.
To achieve this we are keen to support and fund projects and activities on your estates that you can enjoy and benefit from.
Community activities and projects need to be varied to meet the needs, interests and talents of our residents. You may want to develop work related skills, work up a sweat in a boxing class, attend a quiz night, learn how to internet shop or just attend a coffee morning for a chat.
People who live on our estates are the people who know what is needed, to bring people together and what will support and help their neighbours. Please contact your Community Development Officers, with your thoughts, ideas and suggestions.
Can you help?
Whatever your situation, no matter how much time you can spare, we’d love to hear about how you can help.
People volunteer for lots of reasons, including:
- Using their skills and developing new ones
- Making a difference to the lives of people in their community
- Meeting new people and making new friends
- Improving their health and wellbeing
- Increasing their confidence
- Supporting them to move towards employment
- Giving them a sense of purpose and fulfilment
We know that whatever you have to offer we will be able to find a valuable and meaningful role for you. It may be supporting some of our existing activities, setting up new ones, helping with our newsletters, supporting with catering, planning an open day, or sharing your skills and interests with the rest of the estate.
We want you to share your ideas with us and support us to make them happen. To see an up to date schedule of what’s happening where you are, head to the what’s on page for where you live and if you’d like to support a particular project or have an idea you’d like to discuss, contact your local Community Development officer:
